My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

For the Cardinal, the people of the Northern Continent were no different than beasts.

Nothing that happened in this city looked out of place for him. It was just a stronger beast destroying some weaker beasts. What was there to even think about it?

Eren thought differently. Was it really the Kiel Family that attacked their own people? Or was something else going on? Did it have something to do with the warning of the author?

While gazing over the battlefield, he gently rubbed his upper arm, where the mark of the sword was hiding. As the author had previously reminded him, this sword was something that could help him.

The only problem was that he did not know how to bring out the sword. He had attempted various methods, from visualizing the sword materializing to calling it out directly.

Unfortunately, none of those methods worked. He could not even sense the presence of the sword. It was as if the mark on his arm was nothing more than an ordinary tattoo.

Eren appeared to be lost in some deep thought, not even noticing the Cardinal looking at him weirdly.

The Cardinal was very confused. He didn't understand why Eren was paying such an importance to this insignificant place. Did he really feel pity for these people? How was that even possible?

With the kind of reputation the Demonic Sect had, it wasn't wrong to say that he might have done things even worse than this, for even smaller reasons.

"Are you alright?" Treniel called out, sensing a noticeable difference between Eren's demeanor and the rumors he had heard about him.

"I am fine. I was just thinking... What if this isn't the work of the Kiel Family?" Talking out loud, Eren walked back to the Pegasus. "If I'm not wrong, someone even stronger might be here."

"Someone even stronger?" The Cardinal looked at Eren curiously. Was this person concerned that the Necromancer Tower might have sent someone here already?

Inwardly, he laughed.

He had simply lied to Eren that the Necromancer Tower was going to send a representative to take the Demon Sect Elders back to the Tower. Did this person take the rumor seriously, growing worried that the representative might be here already?

'What a fool. The Kiel Family doesn't have any Demon Sect Elders. Why would someone from the Necromancer Tower come here personally?' Treniel thought, amused by the fact that someone from the Demon Sect was so scared.

The more he thought about it, the more he realized that the rumors about the Demon Sect might be exaggerated. Their people appeared to be overly cautious and scared.

"Are you concerned?" he asked Eren in a taunting tone. "If you are scared, you can return. I promise, I won't tell anyone that Great Elder Ren was so scared."

"I never said I was going back," Eren climbed on the Pegasus.

Even though he knew why Treniel was provoking him, it didn't matter. He truly couldn't return at this point. He had to drag the Holy Church into this war, at any cost.

"You really don't have to act brave. If you want to run away, I can keep your secret," The Cardinal poked Eren even more while also climbing on the Pegasus, making sure Eren was so angry that he didn't even think about turning around.

"Are you saying that a follower of the goddess will lie for me? Is your faith that weak?" Eren fired back, making the Cardinal's expressions momentarily darken.

He didn't care what others said about him but he couldn't accept them doubting his faith when he was even willing to die for it.

Before he could respond, Eren's Pegasus started running, soon rising in the air. The Cardinal swallowed his words and followed Eren, not forgetting his purpose.

....

"Young miss, please stop! There is nowhere left for you to run!" one of the men called out, his voice pleading.

"Please listen to the Family Head's instructions and return home with us. We do not wish to harm you," another man said.

"Please, do not create more trouble for the Family Head. Come back peacefully, otherwise..." a third man added, his words appearing like a warning.

All three men were facing a young girl, who stood on the edge of the cliff. Her clothes were covered with sweat, as if she had been running for an eternity.

She was standing right on the edge of the cliff. A single step back and she was going to fall to her death.

On the other side were the men, sent by her father to take her back. Even though the men were respectful, she didn't want to go back with them.

"You will never understand..."

The girl felt like she was at the end of her rope. She had already told the guards following her that something was wrong with her father, as if he was under someone's control.

At first, she didn't know who was manipulating her father. However, the moment her father told her to go to Fey's bedroom at night, she realized who that person was.

She knew that she couldn't stop her father or free him from the control. Within the Kiel Family territory, there was no one who could overpower her father. No one even believed her when she cried out for help.

Even with no other choice, she refused to go to Fey. If the family was not going to help her, then she was determined to find someone who could stop her father.

She ran away from her home, trying to reach the Necromancer Tower. Only they could stop her father, freeing him from this control without harming his mind.

She never expected to be caught before she could travel halfway through the Kiel Family's Territory.

Her beast companion was killed by the guards to stop her. Even then, she tried to escape, only to end up at a dead end.

She closed her eyes, whispering an apology to her father for being unable to help him. She took a step back, letting her body fall off the cliff.
